Is any one still working after 23dec2011? I and about 12 others was told to keep coming to work at east london mail center, i am happy to have a job since i don't have any thing else to do at this time, BUT i am not happy with the pay, i was hoping that they will change the pay to match the angard casual that start work b4 christmas.

I am still working. Manager wants me to stay as a casual until March. I am staying until I find something better, as long as I get paid soon.

Edinburgh sacked all the Angard staff and filled up with Manpower agency staff on a 12 week contract. management got rid of the Angard staff because they were fed up with moaning about pay and threats to go to the press.

Still there up until today the 11th. May find out today if its been extended or not. Shifts have been cut but I would stay in the short term if my pay remains to be ok.

This irony would make for a perfect few column inches.
